    I'm sure it will be in a 22 foot ring. With that said the gloves should be Reyes "Margo special edition".:yep:good

    They ain't fighting at welter, though ;)

    But you're right. It looks like Texas allows 8oz all the way to heavy if the fighters are cool with it. At least, that's how the rule looks at first glance.

    Margos gloves are going to be 6 ounces of bricks with 2 ounces of padding and pieces of glass on the outside just like in the first kick boxer movie starring vandamme.

    I'm sure after Garcia gets done with the gloves, they'll be about 6 oz.

    First comes the bricks then the thin padding after margo is going to dip the gloves into a container of glue and after dip them in a tray full of glass pieces.

    Being serious for a second, I imagine Margo's going to have the most-examined and scrutinized set of gloves in boxing history come Saturday night.

    The true factor is going to be on weather margarito is not going to be drained after making the fight weight of 150, also on weather pac man can feel good at 150 with all the pressure being put on him if margo is not weight drained and comes in at around 160 come fight night. I wish the ring ring was a 12 x 12 that way there would be nowhere to run for either of them just enough room to punch in every direction after all texas commission permits just about everything.

    I want to vote for floyd mayweather jr to be the special invite referee for this fight, now that would surely add another million pay-per views right there.

    To me the smalleer the gloves the better for Pacman because he needs all the thud he can get. The bigger the gloves the longer he has to hold on against Margaritos pressure which may be a factor, to be honest though I think 24/7 just brainwashed me into thinking Marg has a chance. This fight should be all Manny.

    Ever notice how no one on these boards ever refers to Manny as "Pacquiao" as is tradition for all other fighters. No one wants to be called out on mispelling his fancy Philippino name. lol

    Without the bricks, Margo's hands are 10 times faster now.
